Anecdotes
The screenplay for the film by Hull born writer Gill Adams is based on her stage play 'Jump to Cow Heaven' which debuted at the 1997 Edinburgh Festival and won the Fringe First of the Firsts Award for the best new play at the Festival that year, before transferring to Hull Truck Theatre and the Riverside Studios in London in the autumn of that year. Martin Freeman played the role of Frank's minder John in the original production, before he found wider fame in television and film roles. The other cast members were Josh Richards who played Frank and Sarah Parks as Lisa. Director William Kerley also directed the original production.

The Krays themselves appear only fleetingly in what is basically a three-hander 90% of which takes place in a free house lovingly decked out with sixties knickknacks like a Toby jug and Bush portable radio.

The revelation in the closing credits that it originated as a play serves only to confirm a suspicion already long formed.
